joni mitchell - a case of you - blue sessions demo lyrics

[verse 1]
just before our ship got lost you said
“i am as constant as a northern star”
and i said, “you’re just as silly as a northern fish
and if you want me i’ll be in the bar”
on the back of a cartoon coaster pad
that didn’t make me laugh at all
i drew a map of canada
oh, canada
and i charted our last squall

[chorus]
oh, you are in my blood like holy wine
you taste so bitter and so sweet
oh, i could drink a case of you, darling
and i’d still be on my feet
i would still be on my feet

[verse 2]
oh, i am a lonely painter
i live in a box of paint
i’m frightened by the devil
and i’m scared to death by saints
i remember when you told me “love is touching souls”
surely you touched mine
’cause part of you pours out of me
in black and white designs
[chorus]
oh, you are in my blood like holy wine
you taste so bitter and so sweet
oh, i could drink a case of you, darling
and i’d be on my feet
i would still be on my feet

[verse 3]
i met a woman
she had a mouth like yours
she knew your life
she knew your devils and your deeds
and she said
“go to him, stay if you can
but be prepared to bleed”

[chorus]
oh, but you are in my blood, you are my holy wine
you taste so bitter and so sweet
oh, i could drink a case of you, darling
and i’d still be on my feet
i would still be on my feet
